Power distribution block question.

I'm looking for the most simple and clean setup to run power to my guages. I found some blocks but smallest gauge i could find was 10. Anyone have any reccomendations to what you use to supply power to aftermarket products you have?


Thanks
-Justin

Head to an electronics store (Radio Shack is NOT an electronics store), industrial electrical supplier or electrical contractor supply store. Any of those should have a wide range of terminal strips. My preferred choice for thin wires are the terminal strips that clamp onto the wire via a screw at the top. Their name escapes me at the moment. They are only a few dollars, and come in many configurations including ones with common terminals (to where you would connect your master 12V wire). When used with dielectric grease they make a very reliable connection.

Stay away from stereo store distro blocks. They all suck unless you are paying some serious money for the good stuff. You can buy better quality stuff at electrical stores for a fraction of the cost.
